Ireland's Taoiseach defends reopening Irish embassy in Iran for diplomatic relations and staff safety.
Ireland's Taoiseach Simon Harris defended the reopening of the Irish embassy in Iran, highlighting the importance of diplomatic relations for the safety of staff and the release of an Irish national jailed there. The embassy, closed in 2012 due to a financial crisis, was re-established in 2021, and is now fully operational. Harris clarified that having diplomatic ties does not imply agreement with a country's actions, as seen in Ireland's relations with other nations.
